How Sharks and Other Animals Sense Electricity

By Christine Honders

Book Overview

Sharks have a kind of sensory superpower called electroreception. This means they can sense electricity in their watery habitats. Other marine animals, such as dolphins, also share this special sense. Readers discover the ways these animals use their ability to sense electricity and the science that creates this supersense. Fun facts about these animals and their supersense present a fresh look at science curriculum topics such as electricity and animal adaptations. A helpful graphic organizer is also included to aid visual learners. Vibrant photographs of sharks and other animals in their natural habitats add to this electric reading experience!
